About Us

The television industry has embraced digital broadband communication.

Where once a television station could broadcast only one analog, mono channel, now many stations offer either HDTV and in 5.1 surround-sound to boot--a format that requires considerable bandwidth to convey enhanced audio-visual information to your television set--or, alternately, upwards of five distinct channels in a traditional format.

Consider the explosive growth of the internet and how rapidly it has embraced full motion video.
The advertising on many web sites is laced with complex, digitally animated video content. Web-animation has become an art form unto itself, and some films are now produced specifically for internet release.

Consider the incredible proliferation of video games.
Games are made into major Hollywood releases and films now become video games. Indeed, many films are simultaneously released with video games narratively linked to motion pictures.
